Kashamu’s lawyer, Ajibola Oluyede, who spoke with our correspondent near the residence, on Sunday, said Kashamu who was very had not been allowed to leave his bedroom since Saturday.Oluyede said,

“He has been locked inside the room while about 15 armed operatives are in the house. As I speak to you, I have not even seen him. We have only been talking through the door.This is disheartening because his little children and his pregnant wife are all in the house with him.”

When asked to comment on the allegation that Kashamu threatened suicide, the lawyer said, “

“He is obviously traumatised but I wouldn’t say he is suicidal.”

Oluyede alleged that the NDLEA had no plan of taking Kashamu to court on Monday (today) but only later decided to do so because the media got involved.

“Their plan was to get him as early as 4am and put him on the plane to the United States. It was never their plan to take him to court. It was when the media reported the incident that they decided to take him to court,” he said.

About 15 patrol vehicles were seen blocking all entries that lead to Kashamu’s home while over 20 security agents were seen patrolling the street.
Residents of the estate were made to take alternative routes as all roads leading to Kashamu’s home were blocked.

In his reaction, the media aide to Kashamu, Austin Oniyokor, however, berated the drug agency, accusing it of being the mouthpiece of Obasanjo and George.

“We do not know when the NDLEA becomes the spokespersons for Chief Olusegun Obasanjo and Chief Bode George. We do not need them to tell us to address our issues. “We are addressing our issues. We had told the court of the planned abduction of Kashamu and the NDLEA was represented. The court had given an order asking all the parties to stay action, pending the determination of the suit which had been fixed for Wednesday.”

If he is as innocent as he claims, why can’t he just go the US? The legal system works there and if he has nothing to hide and is sure there are no evidences against him and that truly the culprit is his deceased brother (as he claims) what is stopping him going to Court? Except of course, his hands are not as clean as he claims

This guy is considering suicide because he is guilty as alleged. Note this guy has lived in the United States. He knows how the system works. He knows that if he is extradited back into the United States, he will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of law. So therefore, he rather commit suicide or else he may eventually die in prison. Going to prison in United States is not as easy as people have taught. Emotional torture and depression can quickly take the live of a noble individual who suddenly find himself in the four wall of prison. Action speaks louder than voice. If this guy Buruji Kashamu feels he’s a victim of wrong allegation, there are many human right lawyers in the US who will fight on his behalf plus, he may end up suing the United State government for bringing wrong charges against him but looking at this case suicide attempt by this guy shows he’s guilty. United States will not extradite this guy if there is no sufficient proof to build its case against this guy in the court of law. As I have said before nobody can escape the Judgement of God if he really wants to punish anyone.
